Godrulz In your efforts to evangelize you come across with the same opinionated arrogance that I had as a witness It's very annoying. If nothing else you've shown me what a right royal pain in the ass I must have been And I don't need some outsider who can never truly understand in effect telling me that there must have been something wrong with me for being involved in a cult.

Do You Have ABANDONMENT ISSUES?
by sizemik inthrough being "kept busy", jw parents can become emotionally distanced from their children, thus creating abandonment issues which manifest themselves later in adult life.
have a read of the following article .
i have highlighted some critical comments which may be applicable to being raised as a jw.. have you been affected by abandonment issues?.

I'm the rescuer type with the need to be needed and have been drawn into several futile romantic relationships with BPD's who have strong abandonment fears. My early childhood experience was never being good enough.
What I consistently heard as a JW from the literature and the platform was your not good enough. No matter how hard you tried it was never enough They would quote that scripture from one of the minor prophets that Maybe you will be saved during the big A
I believe that JW kids will sense that their parents love if you can call it love is conditional and develop fears of abandonment. How can any parent disown their kids when they don't buy into the bullshit and say it's because they love them

Free gift that you have to work for. Is that what we call an oxymoron? Me thinks you would have to be a moron to swallow that line of reasoning.

A thought about the "imperfect men" excuse for false teachings.
by WontLeave inin researching and writing this, a thought occurred to me.... has anyone ever asked this: if the society is "the faithful and discreet slave" of mat 24, they have been given authority over all of christ's belongings (including the people), are spirit-led and god's sole means of communication, and are entrusted with revealing "food at the proper time", why are they held to a lower standard than the "other sheep"?.
if they blatantly violate scripture, if they make false prophecies, if they reverse their decisions repeatedly, if they go way beyond what is written, if they hold a position for years or decades which is obviously and finally admitted to be false, they are given a total pass as "imperfect men" and "not infallible".
meanwhile, if you or i have a belief jws feel is "wrong" - we're not spirit-directed mouthpieces of god - why are we "apostates"?

Remember the type and anti type articles that were once so prevalent in the WT. Articles that I believe were written my Freddy
Well there is one such article that was never written and never will be... one which would fit the GB perfectly.... " The anti type of the religious leaders of Jesus' day"
PS On second thoughts they may have written one and applied it to the churches

Problems developed with my marriage when my wife began to realize that I had no intentions of ever going back to the cancer. We went to see a psyche. He told her she had cognitive dissonance... that it would not matter what I said... That even if I spoke about the weather she would find fault. He told her that only she could change her perception of me. After that counseling session she changed... suddenly we were like a honeymoon couple again..... but it did not last very long. The dissonance was ...Should she trust her own judgment about me or what the Borg said I must be ( an evil person that can't be trusted) She also rejected our son and daughter. They moved out and lived with me. Thankfully I was able to save both myself and them from the cult mentality.
The WT says You can't have a happy marriage unless your both serving Jehovah the GB And they will ,with their propaganda, do their best to make sure you don't. As my psychologist said "All the Elders were in the marriage bed with my wife and I"

Were you ever DF'd? For what and how long?
by QuestioningEverything ini was df'd when i was 20 or so for fornication.
i got reinstated when i was 24. i had a son during that time and i was worried about us if we didn't get back to the fold and 'protection' of the organization.

Yes For supporting my daughter's decision to not have the child of her rapist I continued to attend meetings for 7 months then they wanted me to apply for reinstatement I refused What's the point I was not repentant And if I did not need to be then the whole process is a farce.
All this talk of Jehovah giving us free will Where was my daughter's freewill to reject the religion I raised her in Yet I was expected to force her. No way Our children are not possessions to control and manipulate. Anyway she did me a favor Cause I smelt a rat and began to research and question the basis of my trust in the Org's claim to divine direction

Are You The Type Of Person That Really "Loves" People On This Site?
by minimus ini know some here seem to truly be interested in everyone's welfare.
they seem to be really troubled/happy by another poster's health, life, children, job, sex life, worries, anxieties---you name it, they're very involved in "caring" about people that they hardly know.. i have forged some friendships, i've met some great people on this site.
i've communicated with many nice people here.

Well I've never met anyone on this board but I can certainly relate to you. People who have never had our experience and try to help annoy me They just don't understand. I admire your courage and honesty in admitting you were damaged and your determination to be healthy I share your sorrow for the family you lost and your joy as you discover your authentic self. Love is a much maligned word in the English language We say we love our food sport beer dog etc But if you define love as action "Love is as love does" Then I can say if you want me to I would reach out and help anyone of you because I care about you ( no religious agenda) as I know many of you would do for me
